Wow. As is often the case, the half-assed apology is nearly as bad as the
original comment (only nearly because, Holy Cow the original comment was so
bad. Even in the context of the show, and how horrible a character she was,
that scene still felt difficult to watch).

I don’t care that much about any branch of the British Royal Family, but to
have and express this much focused and intense violent, sadistic hatred for
someone who at worst is a B cable television actress literally has no other
possible explanation than that the speaker is a monstrous misogynistic
racist. An apology that basically takes the form of “I’m sorry I used Game
of Thrones to express my racist misogyny” does more to confirm than excuse
the character of the man who uttered it.

Plus, I really like Nicola Sturgeon…
